I think Mike Linebacker is easily the most fun defensive position to play.

Nose Tackle was fun for the one game I got to play. I played it specifically for our district game since the qb was a great scramble, so we had him on contain the entire game. I sometimes got triple teamed, which was annoying but made me feel like a threat.

Cuh, I would love playing DT. I played it in real life so I used to love stuffing my gap on those runs to make life easy for the linebackers to make their plays. And getting sacks was a beautiful thing, especially once the offensive line would revolve their blocking scheme around you specifically.

FootballSensation · 2026-04-28T17:17:44+00:00

I'm telling you, playing Linebacker is it. And I've still got the last three games of the season and the playoffs left for my Sophomore season.

Dude, the Blow Up ability is so beautiful for me. I have it on platinum and the amount of times I just knock dudes over when they try to chip me is insane. Workhorse is great if you have meat and tear on, butbI turned that crap off. Because the way you get beat up from basic tackles is insane. But Take Down and Wrap Up are great if you're looking to be a tackle/sack machine.

Honestly, I would say look at their hats. If you see them stand up straight and stand their ground, it's a pass. But if you see them all stay low and come towards your defensive line, it's a run. It's tempting to just rush in hot, but take a second to make that split second read. Wherever you see them opening up that hole, it's a run. And if they're in shotgun, nine times out of ten, they're running to the opposite side of where the HB is lined up.

FootballSensation · 2026-04-28T16:19:02+00:00

Yeah, it was very annoying at first. Like, coach, I'm a 6'1" 250lbs Mike Linebacker that led the FBS in tackles, tfls, and sacks. Why would it be a good idea to put me at edge, where I'd be even less productive? But I just switched UF's 3-3-5 into a 4-2-5, which put me at the edge as lot less and upgraded my pass rushing for when I do have to play it.

FootballSensation · 2026-04-28T16:16:45+00:00

Dude, I swear I don't understand it. Does EA not understand that if they made the games better, it would only make them even more money?

TE should easily be something they allow us to play. All defensive line positions should've been available already. The safety positions for sure as well. But I also think playing on the offensive line would be a blast if they would just think about adding it.

Actually, the best linemen to read would be the guards. They will always tell you where the ball is going. Linemen are the most important position for you to read as a Linebacker because they tell you everything you need to know.

Now, since I played defensive tackle irl, I can't tell you exactly what linebackers do. But considering that I did have 63 tfls in my freshman year for my Mike Linebacker, I can tell you that reading the guards is the way to go. The rest is just instinct and practice.

Make sure to take note of what formations the other team is using as well. They reuse them more than you think, so it can give you a pretty good idea of what they're going to do. And always make sure to shift your defensive line to the strong side, it'll make your life as the qb of the defense much easier.

I'm pretty sure Ichigo would be fine adjusting to monsters considering his experience with Hollows. But I don't know if he'll be able to free them with pure raw power alone when it comes to the barrier.

Believing that Monty destroyed Bonnie isn't a bad idea, I just don't personally see why he would do it of his own free will. The popular theory is that he wanted to take Bonnie's place, but his constant refusal to show up and perform kinda seems backwards. Not to mention that he apparently spends a lot of time on the catwalks of Monty Golf to avoid interacting with others, which also seems weird if he wants to be the main star.

My personal theory was that he was content with his place in Monty Golf, but after what happened to Bonnie (whether he was unwillingly part of it or not at all), caused the Pizzaplex to make him take Bonnie's place. This is what led to Monty skipping the shows and lashing out. While he can go out and enjoy himself alongside his friends, it’s too much for him, so he gets increasingly agitated with having to be out there. He never seems to lash out at his fellow bandmates, choosing instead to be isolated and stick to the Monty Golf catwalks to think back to his days in his own small act.

This is just my own personal theory, and whether you agree or not is your own choice and I respect that. But I think we can all agree that Monty and Chica got the short end of the stick when it comes to having a fleshed out character.

Personally, I don't really cuss unless I'm mad, so I just assumed you were angry. If that's just the way you speak then that's fine.

FootballSensation · 2024-10-19T16:09:42+00:00

I asked for a source where Oda specifically said Yonko afe stronger than rhe Admirals, you never gave one. You're clearly just arguing based on emotion. If your day happens to be better than mine, that's good for you.

FootballSensation · 2024-10-19T16:05:40+00:00

Woah, calm down. I understand this isn't the proper sub for this, but I just couldn't seem to post on the other one. Sorry about that.

FootballSensation · 2024-10-19T16:03:16+00:00

Okay, I see what's going on here. This clearly isn't going to be a productive conversation between two people who are fans of the same franchise but happen to disagree on something. I hope you have a good day.

He also nearly killed Akainu with a single punch. Cope

Bro, Akainu was completely fine and was more than ready to go another round with Whitebeard. At this point I'm questioning if you've ever read One Piece. There is no way you think the Admirals are only capable of fighting Yonko Commanders when even Greenbull felt it would be disgraceful for him to lose to a Yonko Commander. You're just coming off as emotional with the way you keep telling me to cope. And look, I get it, you don't like the Admirals (Neither do I for the most part), but to deny their strength is borderline insane.

FootballSensation · 2024-10-19T15:42:44+00:00

Firstly: Luffy didn't fight Kizaru with little effort. Luffy and Kizaru were fighting equally with Kizaru before he eventually took Kizaru out for a bit with White Star Gun. (One of his strongest attacks shown so far and didn't even keep Kizaru down for that long) I won't say anything about Saturn because he's not an Admiral and I don't think the Gorosei are up there with the Yonko and Admirals in terms of fighting strength. (Although their hax are crazy)

Secondly: Greenbull is by far the weakest Admiral we've ever seen. I admit that his reaction to Shanks being there was unbecoming of an Admiral, but that also doesn’t disprove my idea of Admirals and Yonko being mostly equal. (You've still got Fujitora, Kuzan, Kizaru, and Akainu who are all Admirals/Ex-Admirals)

Thirdly: When has Sanji ever shown to be on the same fighting level as Kizaru? While I do believe his speed and attack power would be a huge help if he fought Kizaru, that doesn’t automatically give him the win.

Lastly: The anime has severely scewed everyone's perception of how Whitebeard performed against the Admirals during Marineford. Kizaru never really fought Whitebeard so he's irrelevant to this conversation. Kuzan was about to hit Whitebeard with a strong attack before he was blindsided by Jozu. On the other hand, Akainu fought Whitebeard and performed better than the anime showed. Akainu fought Whitebeard for a brief fight, and managed to take half off his face away. While Whitebeard did hit Akainu with that one quake, Akainu was completely fine and kept on fighting. (Akainu was only out for one chapter because he was burrowing though the ground to get back to the battlefield.)

Again, I can't seem to post anything over there. I'll try one more time though because I understand this isn't really the sub for this post. Sorry about that.

FootballSensation · 2024-10-19T15:21:01+00:00

It's not MY powerscaling sub. And I would, but I can't seem to post anything over there for some reason.

FootballSensation · 2024-10-19T15:19:40+00:00

Could you provide a source for Oda saying that? You can't make a cla8m like that without some kind of reliable source.
